Security is heavy around Delhi's Jantar Mantar as INDIA bloc opposition MPs prepare to stage a ground protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. At the same time, life across Odisha is disrupted due to a state-wide bandh called by the INDIA bloc, demanding the resignation of the CEC and state School and Mass Education Minister Nityanand Gond. Renowned actor Nana Patekar died at the age of 75 after suffering a severe cardiac arrest at his home in Goa. Medical teams tried to revive him with continuous CPR for 45 minutes without success, ending an extraordinary cinematic legacy in Hindi and Marathi cinema. Meanwhile, five prominent states have strongly opposed removing arrest powers from tax officers ahead of GST Council talks, stating that strict penal rules are needed to stop fraud. OpenAI has launched GPT-6, its next-generation AI model featuring multimodal reasoning and real-time interactive visuals. In sports, pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar has improved his fitness and performance through a strict zero-sugar, zero-gluten, and zero-lactose diet. In Bengaluru, actor-activist Prakash Raj announced a people's tribunal on electoral roll revisions for Thursday, with figures like YouTuber Dhruv Rathee and CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke expected to attend. In Kerala, a UDF protest against toll collection at the Nattika toll plaza on National Highway 66 turned violent after activists clashed with police on Thursday. The NHAI started toll collection on October 8, but UDF leaders said the move was premature because service road and pedestrian overbridge work remains incomplete. Congress and IUML activists tried to block operations, leading to police intervention, arrests, and injuries among police personnel. Finally, rescue workers in Delhi's Seemapuri recovered one more body from a building collapse, raising the death toll to four, with eight others injured.
